Thanks for hearing what I'm actually saying, rather than what you think I'm thinking. I hope that makes some sense. [grin]

I saw the film last night and it has helped me truly realize my faith. After watching what Jesus endured, there is only one explanation as to why His disciples would risk the same torture by spreading the word…He is the Son of God. This film is proof that a picture paints a thousand words.

The images of Christ being crucified interspliced with the last supper, telling his disciples that there is no greater gift than for a man to lay down his life for his friends.... Then, as He's dying on the cross, asking God to forgive those who have done this to Him. The ultimate display of love and forgiveness.

Note about violence: Yes the violence is intense at times; however, I was expecting a lot worse. Much of the violence plays out in your mind, as you hear all the sounds and see the aftermath of the abuse Jesus took, which is brutal, to say the least. And yes, some of the scenes are graphic, but the impact is not that you see every lashing, but rather, the bloody pulp they made of Christ.
